No one has a problem with the BBC existing. Just that it is de facto a state funded and government affiliated news agency.
One of the funnier stories supporting this is that MI5 had to ask the BBC to stop sending everyone for vetting because it was unnecessary!
> when MI5 suggested scaling back the number of jobs subject to vetting, the BBC argued against such a move.
Something the BBC lied about repeatedly and only admitted years after other news agencies broke the story.
Now it's run by the guy who was the PMs boss and who organised a loan for the last PM. And people claims it's totally independent? These sound like stories about RT.
